Japanese traditional crafts

The glass is very beautiful.But the beauty changes by cutting.Japan had a cutting technique to be able to be proud of to the world.The glasswork was type of faceted glass from Edo and type of faceted glass from Satsuma.Cut glass produced in Satsuma province (Kagoshima) in the 1800s is type of faceted glass from Satsuma and which was produced in the Edo era (Tokyo) is type of faceted glass from Edo.The difference between Edo faceted glass and Satsuma faceted glass is said to be a hue.The Edo faceted glass processes transparent glass, and the Satsuma faceted glass processes colored glass.Technical successors decrease from various reasons now.Therefore it is a very rare glasswork.
